The Buffalo Bills and New York Jets meet on Monday Night Football for an AFC East duel in Week 6.
Buffalo is on a two-game losing streak and the three teams that Buffalo has beaten are a combined 5-10 this year. On a higher note, Buffalo’s Josh Allen has not thrown an interception yet and the Bills lead the AFC East with a 3-2 record entering this MNF matchup.
New York is 2-3 this season and suffered embarrassing back-to-back losses that got their head coach Robert Saleh fired. The Jets hired Jeff Ulbright ahead of this prime-time home game as head coach and demoted offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett from play-calling duties, so this could be the start of a course correction for New York.

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes the New York Jets to cover as underdogs and beat the Bills at home on Monday Night Football:
“The New York Jets made the head coaching change and in sports betting, that is something you normally want to back. This being a home prime-time game for a coaching debut is also pretty exciting and a good setup for the Jets to get another AFC East victory.
The injury to Aaron Rodgers (ankle/hamstring) is concerning, but I like the Jets’ defense much more than the Bills who have given up 58 combined points to the only two good teams they have played (Ravens, Texans).
Buffalo has defeated Arizona, Miami, and Jacksonville, who are a combined 5-10. It should be easy for the Jets to get up for this game and be excited to enter a new era in an AFC East that is up for grabs.
Winning at home against the Bills could go a long way in the playoff race two months from now. I like the Jets to cover the +2.5 and win outright (+115).”
